 Venice to Genoa Cycle Challenge

Our exciting challenge takes us west from Venice, crossing the flat plain of the Po Valley. We pass terracotta-roofed towns with striking bell-towers and Renaissance churches, and small traditional villages hidden among the fertile fields growing corn, fruit and olives. Heading into the beautiful Apennines, we tackle strenuous climbs and exhilarating descents as we cross these verdant mountains. Our highest point is the demanding Colle del Cento Croci, a climb used in the Tour of Italy. A wonderful long descent takes us towards the coast and the ancient, picturesque city of Genoa, where we celebrate our huge achievement. With time to explore the cultural gems of Venice and Genoa, this trip combines diverse, challenging cycling with a wonderful Italian experience.
